From August 12 through September 30, 2016, your friends and family can experience more Walt Disney World magic for less. Bring along up to 6 Guests, and they'll enjoy special savings on 1-Day Park Hopper Tickets—just $79 each for same-day admission to all 4 theme parks. So don't miss out on a great time, a great deal… and one of your last chances to catch the incredible Main Street Electrical Parade at Magic Kingdom Park

Please note: Passholder must be present with a valid pass. Friends and family tickets are available only at Walt Disney World theme park ticket windows and must be used on the day of purchase.

I think that's a neat promo. Does it apply to Florida resident APs, too.

It probably costs them very little to offer that deal because realistically how many people are going to take advantage of it? If we bring someone along with us when we go to Disney, they're not only going to go for 1 day. The only place I can think that we would use this is that I have a cousin in Florida (not near Disney) who could drive up and spend one day with us. Is this less than a FL resident would pay for a day?

A 4 day ticket is $81 a day
A 3 day ticket is $96 a day
A 2 day ticket is $101 a day

So even if your guests are staying multiple days it is still may be a better deal to by them one day a a time for $79

The prices above aren't hoppers, so you need to figure that in as well

A 5 day park hopper is $87 a day

I think it is a really great idea for people that are visiting family in Florida and might like to go to Disney for a day but then see what a 1-day ticket for a family of 4 (or whatever) would cost and decide not to do it

 

[mrzrich]

One caveat is that they must be purchased same day which could be problematic with Fp for some rides

Yes Florida residents get no deal on one day tickets.
